Cleansing Myself

god is in me
i am in god
(he would probably puke)

god is in me
i am in god
(he would probably suffocate)

god is in me
i am in god
(he would probably throw
me out)

god is in me
i am in god
on and on
my bell goes
until i feel
divinity peels
the layer
and layer
of filth from
this furnace
of desires
until i feel
a cleaner
and purer
me emerges
